Located 27 miles north of Chicago in Highland Park’s Skokie Valley area, Warren Barr North Shore operates as a 215-bed skilled nursing community with mixed rehab and long-term care missions. Half Day Property Holdings LLC owns the facility; the 72-day average resident stay accommodates both post-acute transitions and extended care. Incoming admissions lean private-pay (54 percent) and Medicare (32 percent), though the current census reflects deep Medicaid utilization (84.9 percent).
Six specialized programs address cardiac, orthopedic, pulmonary, and respiratory needs, plus on-site dialysis.
CMS health inspections place the facility 8.1 percent above state norms, with overall ratings 19 percent higher than Illinois benchmarks. Quality measures score 6.6 percent above state performance.
Pneumococcal vaccination reaches 99.4 percent of long-stay residents (versus the Illinois average of 89.2 percent), and influenza vaccination hits 97.8 percent (versus 91.6 percent statewide).
Urinary tract infection rates run low at 0.2 percent. Functional decline scores outperform state averages by 38 percent, and high-risk clinical events run 18 percent better than state norms.
Falls with major injury affect 6.2 percent of long-stay residents, substantially above the 3.4 percent state average. Depressive symptoms affect 98.5 percent of long-stay residents.
Total nursing hours average 2 hours 28 minutes per resident daily; 21 percent below the state benchmark of 3 hours 6 minutes, placing the facility 125th of 167 Illinois SNFs. Sixty percent of clinical staffing consists of contracted employees. Physical therapy services run 33 percent above state averages at 4 minutes per resident per day.
The facility operates at 65.1 percent occupancy, below the state average, and reported an operating loss of $826,200 on $27.1 million in revenue.
Federal enforcement remains light: $24,000 in cumulative penalties across two 2024 actions which is 83 percent below the state average; it’s received zero payment denials.
Walk Score of 44 indicates suburban location with limited foot traffic.
Warren Barr North Shore orients toward mixed rehabilitation and long-term care in a suburban setting, where vacancy and specialized services reflect evolving financial and operational conditions.
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
This home is ranked 126th out of 166 homes in Illinois for nurse hours. Total adjusted nursing hours per resident per day, combining RN, LPN, and aide time. CMS adjusts this for case-mix so facilities can be fairly compared.
| Staff type | Hours / Day / Resident | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
| 45m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 44m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
| 43m per day | ▲ 14% State avg: 38m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
| 1h 48m per day | ▼ 16% State avg: 2h 8m per day · National avg: 2h 21m per day |
|
Weekend Total Nursing
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
| 3h 12m per day | ▲ 4% State avg: 3h 5m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
| 4m per day | ▲ 36% State avg: 3m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
Weekend RN
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
| 46m per day | ▲ 35% State avg: 34m per day · National avg: 29m per day |
Average number of days residents stay at this facility, based on CMS cost report data. Shorter stays often reflect post-acute or rehab care; longer stays reflect long-term care.

Net patient revenue — what the home actually collects for resident care, after contractual allowances, bad debt and discounts are subtracted from its gross charges (CMS cost report, Worksheet G-3). It covers resident care only; money the home earns from other sources is shown separately as "Other income."
Net patient income: net patient revenue minus the home's total operating expenses. A positive figure means it earns more from resident care than it spends to deliver it; a negative figure means the opposite. It excludes non-operating "other income."

Money the home earns outside of resident care — such as investments, grants, rentals and other non-operating sources (CMS cost report, Worksheet G-3). It is tracked separately from net patient revenue: it is not part of that figure, and it is not included in net patient income.
Staff salaries plus wage-related costs — benefits such as payroll taxes, health insurance and retirement — from the home's own accounting records (CMS cost report, Worksheet A). Contract or agency labor is counted separately, under other operating costs.
